Big decisions. Bigger season ahead. 🎭✨

Tonight, the MPP Board gathered to choose our production for 2026 — and trust us, you’re going to want to stay tuned. The title remains under wraps for now… but an exciting reveal is coming soon. 👀

Sunday, MPP Board members had a wonderful evening at the Bunce Performing Arts Gala, celebrating the power of live theatre and the incredible talent across our metro community 🎭

We’re proud to support and uplift the arts of all theaters, working together to inspire creativity and tell meaningful stories.

Even more exciting—this summer, we can’t wait to see Bunce's production of Matilda! If Sunday's preview was any indication, this looks to be a wonderfully moving show!

Happy Holidays and our deepest gratitude to everyone who joined us for Merrily We Roll Along.

It was a truly special production that introduced us to many new friends and reunited us with cherished old friends.

Most importantly, we were able to share a story that stayed with our audiences long after they walked out the door. There is some part of Frank, Charley, and Mary's journey that resonates with each of us. In this season of reflection, we hope it acts as a reminder that our relationships are priceless and we should hold our loved ones close.

To our cast, crew, and musicians, thank you for making community theater magic with us and so willingly giving your time and talent!

"Here's to us, who's like us? Damn few!"
